  • I almost had the Raspberry Pi thing working last time, and I promised to get it to work, but not just yet. The last two weeks I had a different project on my mind. I was participating in the Micro World Tour, a program that gets a couple of the micro:bit...

  • Basic Display
  • Log     from Micro:Boy
  • So here's basic code for the Micro:bit for handling a SH1106 display, just in case anybody needs it: import microbit class SH1106: move = bytearray(b'\x00\xb0\x02\x10') def __init__(self): self.buffer = bytearray(1024) microbit.i2c.init(freq=400000,...

  • The whiteboarding/brainstorming session was helpful in identifying that there are two particular Users or Customers or "people who could find this interesting". To ensure that it appeals to both types, the project requires a DIY version and Ready-to-use...

  • Walking
  • Log     from Marvin
  • After a few tests with walking, I decided to not give it a huge head after all. I tried a number of different heads (including several acrylic globes from a crafts store, a doll's head and a lightbulb) and finally settled on a cardboard outline. This...

  • The code from the previous log does its job, and is not too slow. But we can do much better! The display is organized into 8 "pages" of memory, each containing 8 lines of the display. Instead of updating every page on every refresh, we can keep track...

  • As the prototypes are coming, this device is becoming a pretty nice thing for teaching game programming, which is its main focus. However, wouldn't it be great if it could also be used for hobby electronics projects, like the micro:bit or any number...

  • Ground Zero
  • Log     from Swarmesh NYU Shanghai
  • The very first conversation about this project happened at my office back in 2018. A couple of students reached out to me asking if I could support a robotics club. We had since then have been working on different concepts, running activities to include...

  • Blit
  • Log     from Micro:Boy
  • I'm still waiting for the attiny chips for the button handling, but I realized that my display driver is not really suitable for making games. Sure, it has that cool dirty pages stuff that makes it fast, but it only can draw a pixel at a time. That's...

  • Progress on a Game
  • Log     from Micro:Boy
  • With the hardware finalized, the remaining work is to actually write at least one game, to prove that it's possible. I decided to make a game inspired by such classics as Dig Dug, Digger and Boulder Dash — you dig tunnels, collect gems, avoid monsters...

  • MemoryError
  • Log     from Micro:Boy
  • So I got that Boulder Dash game as far as I can, working around the ridiculously low memory of Micro:bit, and I think I won't be able to go further. This platform is simply too puny.I have an animated player character digging tunnels, and I have boulders...
